- Dairy often causes constipation in humans, and diarrhea in chickens.
- Humans are the only animal who drink milk after infancy. We should listen to that hint.
- Roughly 70% of humans have problems when they eat dairy. Therefor, it can't be that good for your body.
- It is a myth that dairy has a lot of proteins, it actually is less than 5% protein! Unprocessed meat has protein and extra vitamins besides.
- If you are worried that you need milk for calcium, consider this: where does the cow get the calcium that goes into the milk? Plants!
